Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2018-01-15 16:29 - Updated: 2026-06-17 02:00
Severity
Summary
Transmission through 2.92 relies on X-Transmission-Session-Id (which is not a forbidden header for Fetch) for access control, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary RPC commands, and consequently write to arbitrary files, via POST requests to /transmission/rpc in conjunction with a DNS rebinding attack.
